Game# 925-926
Play On: Rangers +107

Houston continued its season long trend of being a fantastic road team by sweeping the 3 games in Texas and put themselves 1 win away from reaching another World Series. However, the Astros are just 40-45 at home this season and that includes going 3-10 in the last 13. Framber Valdez is scheduled to be on the mound for Houston tonight and he’s recently being in terrible form. During his last 4 starts, Valdez posted an awful 9.92 ERA/2.14 WHIP and averaged just 4.1 innings pitched per outing.

It was a huge disappointment for Texas to lose all 3 at home after winning the first 2 of this NLCS at Houston. However, they can take solace in knowing that they’re a perfect 6-0 on the road this postseason. Additionally, Nathan Eovaldi get the start in Game 6 and he’s been in terrific form over 3 postseason starts while going 3-0 with a 2.29 ERA/0.86 WHIP. As a matter of fact, Eovaldi is 13-2 in his career postseason team starts and opponents averaged a mere 2.9 runs scored per outing during those 15 games. Give me the Rangers on the money line.
